Man Scout’s Twitter profile currently claims he is a “glorified t-shirt counter.” In history where he reveals he was hired, he says he will continue to wrestle on the independents and focus on his comedy career as well. He last wrestled on January 16 at a Wrestling Revolver show.

AEW has hired professional wrestlers to work behind the scenes for them since the start of the promotion. Christopher Daniels is still the head of talent relations. Rebel is part of the makeup crew.
